The Last Man on Earth: Season Two Ratings

Published: May 16, 2016

Last season, The Last Man on Earth had a positive start in the ratings but then the numbers declined as the weeks progressed. FOX renewed it for a second season anyway. Will the numbers drop lower or will they rise this time? Cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned.

The Last Man on Earth begins in 2020 — a year after a deadly virus has swept the plant. Phil Miller (Will Forte) believes he’s the last human alive but soon discovers he’s not alone. The rest of the cast includes Kristen Schaal, January Jones, Mel Rodriguez, and Cleopatra Coleman.

The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Note:Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.

This steaming pile of excrement has been renewed for S3? Seriously? I watched from day 1 hoping it would magically transform into something remotely funny or interesting. It hasn’t. Writing and acting are abysmal and any humor failed to rise above 5th grade toilet level. I can only assume that some decision maker at Fox is taking some damn good drugs (or getting a bloody good kick-back?)!!

Will Forte was not funny on SNL. The character on Last Man on Earth is not funny. I find him obnoxious. I assume that as a writer Forte considers this funny. I tried to watch two episodes. Can’t bear to watch anymore.

This is a great show, But when they only show 2 or 3 episodes, then take 2 or 3 weeks off. then show a couple of more episodes then go on winter break for 3 or 4 months then show two or three more episodes then take another 3 weeks off, it turns people off from following the show. Again this is a great show and would probably do well if you would be more consistent with its airing.

Please don’t cancel! My wife and I have been watching it on Hulu and now see all the fun we had been missing out on. I can’t wait to see if Phil and his brother are reunited, and how sibling rivalry will plays into the future for Phil as we should all then come to realize why Phil is the big jerk he is.
